Your Unfortunate Ascension To Power Has Brought Economic Destruction Of Nigerians, Sowore Knocks Tinubu Government
Sowore blamed the economic hardship caused by the Tinubu administration, describing the deaths as a grim reflection of the deepening crisis facing the country.
Human rights activist and convener of #RevolutionNow movement, Omoyele Sowore, has condemned the government of President Bola Tinubu over the stampede tragedies that claimed the lives of at least 100 Nigerians within a week.
The incidents occurred in Ibadan (Oyo State), Okija (Anambra State), and Abuja (FCT), where desperate citizens were reportedly in search of rice.
In a post shared on his X handle on Saturday, Sowore blamed the economic hardship caused by the Tinubu administration, describing the deaths as a grim reflection of the deepening crisis facing the country.
He stated that the heartbreaking stampedes were not just a accident but a direct result of the economic destruction brought about by the current leadership since May 2023.
“If anyone didn’t know how bad things are and how our people are really desperate for survival, this unprecedented but unwarranted death by hunger-suicide tells the real story,” Sowore said.
“Nigeria is in trouble, and Nigerians are endangered.”
He said, “Not less than 100 Nigerians have perished in less than a week in Ibadan (Oyo), Okija (Anambra), and Abuja (FCT) just in search of rice; this speaks precisely to the debilitating economic destruction wrought on Nigerians by the @officialABAT regime since his unfortunate ascension to power in May 2023.
“If anyone didn’t know how bad things are and how our people are really desperate for survival, this unprecedented but unwarranted death by hunger-suicide tells the real story.
“Nigeria is in trouble and Nigerians are endangered! #RevolutionNow,” Sowore added.
